MAGA are the rinos. They hijacked the name. The ones who are not with Trump are the real Republicans. I am so glad that many are putting country before party and voting for Kamala.
@DubhghlasMacDubhghlas he pretty much is a rino. He has no plans to vote republican again. He just doesn't feel like changing his voter registration. Too much work.
My mother is 76 years old, but she was a vigorous young woman of 60 when Hillary Clinton ran in the Democratic primary back in naught-eight. And she actually went to Iowa and got a job with her campaign doing the doorknocking and the phonebanking and the what have you. She was upset that Barry O got the nomination over her, but she still supported him in the general election. Eight years later, she was never happier when Hillary actually did get the nomination and was ecstatic about the idea of seeing the first woman president, something she never thought she'd see when she was growing up. Well, I won't remind you what happened next, but I'd never seen her more heartbroken. After the 2016 election, she was convinced she would not live to see a woman president... Her spirits have now lifted somewhat... though she does admit she feels like the party fucked over Joe Biden unjustly.
As soon as Harris is elected the GOP supporters will turn on her - that's why blue Harris supporters need to do what Obama supporters didn't do - vote in the midterms & all the way down the ballot!!!
If we can just get people to actually vote in every single election...We can change things. Voter apathy got us into this mess, and voting can help to pull us out.
Maybe if Obama had given them a reason to vote they would have, he was a do nothing. And now he got mad that Biden did for the country things that he was too mild tempered to do. All of that waiting he kept doing hoping to get republicans on board with him so things could be bipartisan. Please
Well said and on target. If elected, she will face a barrage of attacks on a daily basis. Voters must support the administration at the midterms and review the platforms of local officials. It all starts at the local level, so remember this when voting for city and state representatives.
Sure, because democracy always seats someone without a single primary vote to represent 400,000,000 people as their president. but let's get even more real about what democracy really looks like in a country of this size: 200,000,001 people removing the civil rights of 199,999,999 by a single vote majority. This is why every sane person cocks their heads sideways when they head democrat voters speak what passes as their mind.
This is the point I had to try to get across to a good friend recently. She won’t vote Trump, but she also doesn’t like Harris. I had to get the point across to her that, it’s not Harris vs. Trump. It’s democracy vs. autocracy.
If trump loses he will claim victory and start his attacks on our democracy just like he did after losing in 2020. Hopefully the outgoing Biden will go out big by treating Trump like the danger to our nation that he is. Then pres Harris will continue. That's the de trumping we need

Thanks for keeping the channel going. You are an invaluable source of information concerning American politics, international conflicts, and everything to do with the military and weapons. I don't know much about the latter two, and Beau was always my go to newssource for such matters. I'm glad it still is. You do know stuff.
I am so sorry I didn't realize how much he worked 😔 I didn't even have time to watch all of them! I should have mentioned work/life balance. Sorry Belle

I’m thankful that some actual Republicans are taking a stand. Especially knowing the instant hatred & death threats they’ll have to endure from MAGA voters & politicians for THEIR freedom of speech. I do believe it will help with some of the voters. This experiment of 247 years needs to continue - we can make things better for all people.. but not if we hire a dictator.
I've been an independent since 2020. I will be adding a Nevada vote for Harris this November, and not just Nevada, but the infamous Washoe county I've been inspired by the unity and endorsements from even many Republicans and feel like Democrats are on the verge of finally becoming a functional political party. I don't align with all their values but to me America is like we're all collectively flying a plane. Maybe my ideal destination is a bit more to the right, but sometimes we have to make a hard turn to the left in order to correct course and get back to a more centered, harmonious balance between the two extremes America isn't about this petty fighting. Everyone who isn't actively trying to elect a dictator misses the days when we could disagree fundamentally on something, and yet still not hate each other. We can get back to that if we win this election, but once a dictator is elected, it's a lifetime position... I implore anyone who reads this who is still somehow undecided to look at the actual facts of who represents your interests. If it's MAGA, you're actively voting to keep yourself poorer, less educated, less safe and less free. I sincerely hope you will make the right decision when the day comes
Re: _"...and feel like Democrats are on the verge of finally becoming a functional political party."_ We appreciate your optimism! - a Democratic campaign worker😄
I’ve been a Republican since I was 20 years old. After Trump took over…I’m just tired of the ugliness that perverted my party, ignoring the people and The Constitution for the whims of the pig. Just as I voted for Biden over Trump, I’ve chosen Harris and I joined the Republicans For Harris.
In this election, I hope EVERYONE votes country over party. For you real republicans I hope you get your party back. This one is way too important. Democrats, no one person is going to be perfect on every issue, vote for the person who will save our democracy. Felon VS Prosecutor = Madam President!!
I will admit that I didn’t know what I was going to do when Beau stepped away (even while being very glad for him, because he’s doing what’s best for him). But Belle… you’re doing one hell of a job here! Thank you for stepping in and keeping the content so solid!
Well, Trump lost a number of his voters to COVID, and for moderate Republicans, he was already on thin ice before he tried to find 11,780 and especially before his followers stormed the Capitol. 4 years on, they may not agree with the Democrats, but many of them do NOT want Trump anymore, so desperate times desperate measures and all that...
Even though I was in middle school back in 2008, I remember seeing stories on the news a month out from the Presidential Election that Obama was going to win since McCain rallies were getting smaller & smaller, & then Obama went on to win 365 Electoral Votes to McCain's 173. Well, we're 3 months out from this year's Presidential Election & we're already getting multiple stories of Trump rallies getting smaller & smaller, which makes me hopeful that Harris will win in November with similar Electoral & Popular Vote numbers of that of Obama.
The US is long overdue for a female President. Trump losing to a woman would be the final pick in the teeth for him. A woman who isn't white? That's just the icing on the cake...

I heard Tim Miller say that “Republicans for Harris” is a good way to attract republicans who reject trump but who might find it difficult to justify voting for Harris because they want to preserve their republican identity.

If these people are tired of the drama and chaos, prefer to go with the candidates that aren't into "social wars" , then this pushes the Republican Party to get rid of the people who are causing the chaos and "social wars" which can only be an improvement.

" oh, deargod! What has he done TODAY ?!?! "
By far the healthiest thing about these endorsements is that willingness of principled people to put the good of the nation first rather than party or, God forbid, a dictator wannabe.
Anyone that reads project 2025 should be frightened for our country
It doesn’t matter what party you belong to, we all want this country to be better for our kids
Vote blue until maga is demolished!
You don't even have to read the 900 pages. Wikipedia has a recap. If that were implemented it would destroy our economy. Seems like a foreign actor plot...
Thank goodness A FEW Republicans haven't lost their minds VOTE BLUE💙
My parents were Eisenhower, Nixon, and Reagan Republicans. I was a Republican in North Carolina from 1987 to 2016. I am voting for Kamala Harris along with my wife and our 3 voting-age children.
I don't often comment on RUclips channels, but Belle, you are doing a great job delivering facts in a timely fashion and giving us things to think about. It might be minus a little snark - but I appreciate you, your husband, and what you've built here. Carry on, friend. You've got this. All my best to, Mr. Belle. :D
Howdy Belle, it's the Netherlands 🇳🇱 again. You have exceeded expectations in the way you've taken over from Beau. Wish him well from us, I hope he finds the rest he needs.
Thanks for keeping the channel going. You are an invaluable source of information concerning American politics, international conflicts, and everything to do with the military and weapons.
I don't know much about the latter two, and Beau was always my go to newssource for such matters.
I'm glad it still is. You do know stuff.
I am so sorry I didn't realize how much he worked 😔 I didn't even have time to watch all of them! I should have mentioned work/life balance. Sorry Belle
You’re doing great, Mrs. Beau! I’m kind of glad to see your face! I’m so glad Beau is taking care of himself now. I knew he needed to. I will continue to watch every single video on every single channel and donate whenever I can! P.S. your calm works just as well as Beau’s did to calm me down.
Let’s go! The Democratic Party is a coalition of ideas, and the tent is big enough for anybody who wants to come over-even if it’s just for a visit.
If that visit keeps Trump out of the White House, welcome aboard.
@@mariegarside8830 EXACTLY!
I’m thankful that some actual Republicans are taking a stand. Especially knowing the instant hatred & death threats they’ll have to endure from MAGA voters & politicians for THEIR freedom of speech. I do believe it will help with some of the voters.
This experiment of 247 years needs to continue - we can make things better for all people.. but not if we hire a dictator.
I've been an independent since 2020. I will be adding a Nevada vote for Harris this November, and not just Nevada, but the infamous Washoe county
I've been inspired by the unity and endorsements from even many Republicans and feel like Democrats are on the verge of finally becoming a functional political party. I don't align with all their values but to me America is like we're all collectively flying a plane. Maybe my ideal destination is a bit more to the right, but sometimes we have to make a hard turn to the left in order to correct course and get back to a more centered, harmonious balance between the two extremes
America isn't about this petty fighting. Everyone who isn't actively trying to elect a dictator misses the days when we could disagree fundamentally on something, and yet still not hate each other. We can get back to that if we win this election, but once a dictator is elected, it's a lifetime position...
I implore anyone who reads this who is still somehow undecided to look at the actual facts of who represents your interests. If it's MAGA, you're actively voting to keep yourself poorer, less educated, less safe and less free. I sincerely hope you will make the right decision when the day comes
Beautifully said!! 👏👏👏 💙
Welcome aboard the good ship SS Democrat. Glad to have you here. Maybe you'll get comfortable enough stay.
Re: _"...and feel like Democrats are on the verge of finally becoming a functional political party."_
We appreciate your optimism! - a Democratic campaign worker😄
Trump needs to take a good long look in the mirror and say,
"You're fired!"
What makes you think he has a reflection?
@@billkenney422 Oof! 😆
If he had mirrors he would see that he is orange
I’ve been a Republican since I was 20 years old. After Trump took over…I’m just tired of the ugliness that perverted my party, ignoring the people and The Constitution for the whims of the pig.
Just as I voted for Biden over Trump, I’ve chosen Harris and I joined the Republicans For Harris.
I'm delighted that some Republicans are choosing Country over Party. I hope more American Republicans find their moral compass.
I’d love to hear GW Bush endorse Kamala. Get all the living presidents behind her, to show Orange he and his BS have no place in the Oval Office.
It's always nice to see a smart woman
*smart person. Intelligent men are just as rare. Smart has nothing to do with gender.
Smart people are everywhere.
@@luciatheron1621 aaaand it's always nice to see them, neighbor. Nice to see you too. 👋
Im a Republican and never did never will support or vote for Trump. HARRIS 2024 🇺🇸💙
With any new job there is a learning curve, you are way ahead of the curve Belle
She has a good advisor.
Belle you are killing it. Make sure you tell Beau he better have your dinner ready because you are a hard working woman defending America.
In this election, I hope EVERYONE votes country over party. For you real republicans I hope you get your party back. This one is way too important. Democrats, no one person is going to be perfect
on every issue, vote for the person who will save our democracy.
Felon VS Prosecutor = Madam President!!
I will admit that I didn’t know what I was going to do when Beau stepped away (even while being very glad for him, because he’s doing what’s best for him). But Belle… you’re doing one hell of a job here! Thank you for stepping in and keeping the content so solid!
Goodness...that sounds like *unity* to me. Wonder how "Democrats for Trump" is doing?
Is that a thing?
🤣🤣🤣
@@sidebussi261 Yes, but it's just Tim Pool wearing a variety of wigs and using fake names to pretend to be 20 people.
RFK jr...
@@amberm3573 Oh, so the good old "I am/was an _x_ like you, but..." that we've seen from Christian preachers, peddlers of alternative medicine, etc.
If even 10% switch beyond this one election…that’s a huge change.
As Beau has said, we have a lot more in common than we have in difference.
Well, Trump lost a number of his voters to COVID, and for moderate Republicans, he was already on thin ice before he tried to find 11,780 and especially before his followers stormed the Capitol. 4 years on, they may not agree with the Democrats, but many of them do NOT want Trump anymore, so desperate times desperate measures and all that...
Right on, trump was never America first or even party first, he has always been trump first
Always always always
Trump first .
Thank you Belle!!! Your calm and reasoned voice is not just wanted, it is required!!!!! Appreciate all that you are doing.
I support veterans, unions, and the Constitution-I’m voting blue
I can't wait to vote blue & take a friend. I'm literally counting down the days. WE can't agree w/ everything but, enough is enough. Nuff said
We love you Belle!!
Even though I was in middle school back in 2008, I remember seeing stories on the news a month out from the Presidential Election that Obama was going to win since McCain rallies were getting smaller & smaller, & then Obama went on to win 365 Electoral Votes to McCain's 173. Well, we're 3 months out from this year's Presidential Election & we're already getting multiple stories of Trump rallies getting smaller & smaller, which makes me hopeful that Harris will win in November with similar Electoral & Popular Vote numbers of that of Obama.
The US is long overdue for a female President. Trump losing to a woman would be the final pick in the teeth for him. A woman who isn't white? That's just the icing on the cake...
💙🙏🏽💙
Good sign!
Hi Belle. Over 80,000 views. You go Belle. So happy, so will still support you. You are awesome. Keep going and stay strong. 'Anyway its just a thought'. Richard from Tasmania Australia 🇦🇺
I'm really enjoying your reporting Miss Bell❤
I’m loving your work, Belle! Keep it up. Your confidence is growing.
We all now know who the true Rinos are.........MAGA.
Excellent work! Thank you!❤
Good public policy requires strong good faith opposition. Republicans for Harris should have a seat at the table.
If there's no place at the table, bring a folding chair.

Getting better everyday thanks belle. I’m missing beau less 💙
Well, color me impressed by these Republicans who see the bigger picture.
It's about time. 👍🇺🇸
There should never be party lines… You should vote for the candidate who will work for the people not the special interests groups.
It is beautiful thing to watch!
Sago Belle thank you.
Great work Mrs. Beau.
🇺🇸 KAMALA HARRIS 🇺🇸 2024
Save our democracy, freedoms
Stop project 2025🗳💙🌊💙🌊👍🏻👍🏿👍🏾👍🏽👍 🇺🇸🗽🌎
Totally unrelated to the topic, every time I hear "Howdy there, internet people, it's Belle again" my heart melts and I smile like a moron 😅❤
Thank you Belle.❤
Mrs. Wilson was the de-facto president when Woodrow Wilson was incapacitated at the end of his term. It is time for an official woman president.
Nancy Reagan as well.
@@sailincat2822 Ronald reagan was a walnut brained moron ( see Spitting Image tv series from the 1980s), who jumped into bed with the heritage foundation & enacted the heritage foundation mandates for trickle down economics & huge tax breaks for the wealthy, which he took directly from 'the presidential transition project' (TPTP) that was first published in March 1979
The current published edition of TPTP is 'project 2025' which is a heavily edited version of TPTP, which up until 2016 was always around 2,700 to 3,000 pages with many hundreds of extreme anti civil rights & anti freedom mandates, which are omitted from p2025 so maga voters don't lynch them
It's about time!!
Glad they are choosing country over party. 🇺🇸💯🇺🇸
That's great news. Thanks for sharing it.
So fed up, so sick and tired of the whole Trump lying circus in my life. So ready for a woman president, Its time....lets DO IT !
It's past time to send Trump into retirement.
You're doing a great job, Belle. ❤
I'm loving Belle's videos. So far, the transition is smooth as butter.
Butter ... Butter Cow... State Fair... Next year at the Iowa State Fair we should have butter sculptures of Beau and Belle!
Another great video. Loud love to the team and to Beau
I heard Tim Miller say that “Republicans for Harris” is a good way to attract republicans who reject trump but who might find it difficult to justify voting for Harris because they want to preserve their republican identity.
There is also a group called RVAT - Republicans Voting Against Trump.
Loving your work, Bell.
This excites me more than the enthusiasm Harris has brought to the campaign. This is a Republican mess and republicans need to be as big a part of detrumpificatuon as democrats.
YES. they need to clean their own house!
Hi, Caught me just as I was heading to bed and about to switch off screen. 🏴
Good news at the end of my day which started with me v my new work laptop and headed down hill from there. 😂 'Night Internet people. ❤
Wonderful!
Seeing you -- and hearing your message -- brings great comfort. These are tough times, as you know. Thank you.
Thank you, Belle and Crew!
Glad to hear some Republicans are finally getting rid of the 34 felon.
Thank you
👋
Thanks Belle and crew 😊.
Hi IQ! 👋🌎💙
@marcia7107 Hi marcia 👋😊💙💙🙂
I never thought Republicans could make me cry in a good way.
First thumb up & first with Miss Beau - what an honor. Keep up the great news channel.😊
If these people are tired of the drama and chaos, prefer to go with the candidates that aren't into "social wars" , then this pushes the Republican Party to get rid of the people who are causing the chaos and "social wars" which can only be an improvement.
This right-wing hard-line move began decades ago, so it won't disappear quickly, but it may end up a footnote, not a movement.
